You'd be helping a lot of people who happen to use a Mac if you would
mention in passing that the Xitel equipment is PC Windows only.


Actually, if you look at their faq you'll find this:

   Does the AN1 or DG1 work on a Mac

Issue: Can I use an AN1 or DG1 on a Mac and will all the features be supported.

Fix: We do not currently support Mac computers because the USB audio on Mac has yet to 
be completely standardized. Both the AN1 and DG1 will work on Mac systems running OS 
9.0.4 with Apple Audio Extension1.0.5. The AN1 will operate as described on this 
website. The DG1 auto trackmarking feature is defeated on Macs, because Mac media 
players tend to spool all the audio tracks and play them as one continuous stream. 
This ensures that the audio quality through the USB port is great, but defeats the 
track marking feature. It is  possible that with the correct media player, the auto 
track marking feature will work fine - as long as the tracks are played individually 
and not spooled. At this stage, the included MusicMatch software is a PC only version.

I am, like yourself, a mac user...

 Check out this nifty little gadget from Xitel. It seems to do the job, only
 cheaper.

 MD enthusiasts,
 
 For some time now I have wanted to burn my mp3 files to my minidiscs. I am
 also the proud owner of a Mac powerbook with USB ports. A friend of mine
 suggested that look into buying a Roland UA-30 USB audio interface. What
 this device essentially does is it transfers the mp3 signal from my
 powerbook's USB port and convert it to an optical signal (I believe he said
 it was called "S/PDIF" format) that my Sony minidisc deck can
 accept.
 
 Has anyone tried this? If so, were there any problems? As I mentioned
 before, my laptop is a Mac G3 Powerbook with USB outputs, OS 9.1 and my Sony
 minidisc deck is the MDS-JE510 model.
 
 Thanks for all your help!!
 
 Bondster!

MD: USB and MD

2001-01-04 Thread J. Coon


I was asked the following question and since I don't have USB port, I
thought I'd ask the group.  I told him to use the sound card Line In and
the MD Line out, but he didn't say what MD he had.  


 I've got a sony
 walkman MD and it came with a USB cable, PC link that connects the USB
 cable and a stereo mini audio cable that plugs into the MD player.  I
 can record music from my Hard Drive to the MD with out any problem,
 but I can't seem to go the other way.  I've tried to use the Media
 rack to receive input from the MD but that doesn't work.  I have Magix
 music studio Generation 5 for editing ect.  but it is of no use in
 importing the audio directly from the MD.  I figure that I should be
 able to import audio from the USB port but I can't figure out how.  If
 you have any ideas I would be very greatful.

No, you cannot input the sound into the USB port.  The adapter uses a
digital to analog converter (DAC) for going from the usb - audio cable, but
I'm guessing it doesnt have an Analog to Digital converter (ADC) for going
from the audio cable- usb.  I believe it was only set up for use going from
USB to miniplug cable, both the actual device and the software.
